I couldn't figure out how many of the vaxxed Covid positive people had serious symptoms. As far as I know, only one such person has been hospitalized, but that was from an article a couple of weeks ago. There was a label at the top of the breakthrough case number stating that it did not represent all breakthrough cases because they don't have time to follow up with everyone. At a federal level, I believe most of the breakthrough cases they track are only related to people who were hospitalized.

I don't know how telling the .05 number is. There is not a lot of virus circulating right now and that's due in part to the vaccine but also to the time of year, people still being cautious, and low population density. I would like to know more about the 6% of people who are testing positive. Did they get their vaccine a while ago? Does it wear off quickly? Did they have less immunity built up due to age? 6% is better than 20% but how is this pandemic going to end when huge swathes of the population won't get any vaccine by choice and so many parts of the world still have no access at all?


37% of those hospitalized being vaxxed is truly dreadful. It's depressing. It is hard to see an end in sight. I have to remember that other pandemics have ended.
